Thank you! No, only UT press
As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.
New book alert! “Fugitive Anthropology. Embodying activist Scholarship” published by @utexaspress.bsky.social and edited by the fugitive collective. Very honored to have a chapter in this book about grief as a method. Get your pre-order! It will be out in January 2026!
This is Alice's friend Sandy Ho, posting. Per Alice's wishes, this message is being shared at the time of her passing. Hi everyone, it looks like I ran out of time. I have so many dreams that wanted to fulfill and plans to create new stories for you. There are a few in progress that might come to fruition in a few years if things work out. I did not ever imagine I would live to this age and end up a writer, editor, activist, and more. As a kid riddled with insecurity and internalized ableism, I could not see a path forward. It was thanks to friendships and some great teachers who believed in me that I was able to fight my way out of miserable situations into a place where I finally felt comfortable in my skin. We need more stories about us and our culture. You all, we all, deserve the everything and more in such a hostile, ableist environment. Our wisdom is incisive and unflinching. I'm honored to be your ancestor and believe disabled oracles like us will light the way to the future. Don't let the bastards grind you down. I love you all.
You were incredible, Alice Wong, and it was a blessing to have collaborated with you on projects, to have read your words and to have heard your voice, as full of life and passion and joy and rage as it was.
You made a difference—so much of a difference.
Rest always in peace, and always in power.
I don’t want to formulate words yet, but my friend Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social of the Disability Visibility Project, has passed.
Here are the words she left behind:

Flight attendants are on tiktok urging people not to fly during the shutdown, citing under-reported issues and massive delays.
If you do choose to fly, please bring gift cards (under $25 per regulations) for TSA and flight attendants. The impact of this will last for months.

The government of Jamaica has set up a portal for contributing to official relief efforts. I will update this thread if anything analogous opens up for Haiti, Cuba, or the DR

I’ve heard from one of my sisters in #Jamaica (St. Ann’s Bay). No water or electricity & they lost the solar panel off the roof, but they are safe. Still waiting to hear from my youngest sister in Gayle. Anyone have news from St. Mary’s parish? #EyeOnMelissa

Reminder: you don’t have to be good at something to enjoy it, you don’t have to get better at it, you don’t have to monetize it, and it doesn’t have to be useful.
A helpful post from Alexis Shotwell about how to decide when to write:
"Academic writing, like many things, is quite vulnerable to co-optation by what Jay Smooth calls 'The Little Hater,'" #academiclife 🧪
